So my pc freezes a lot usually when playing high gpu demanding games. It can run every game and the fps is always amazing but sometimes even after 10 minutes of, for example cyberpunk 2077, it freezes and after every freeze I can’t do anything, the keyboard acts like it lost power because the lighting goes off and I can’t do any button combination to get out of the game (ctrl + alt + del etc), trying to switch it to another usb port doesn’t do anything in that state or for freezing in general, the mouse stays lit up but no response either, components in the pc stay lit up too. I can only press the restart button on my tower to boot it up again.
Only troubleshoot that I have done is changing my PSU and my Motherboard and it was still the same, that’s why I’m thinking that it’s probably the gpu but I can’t know for sure.
I have seen some post here of people saying to change the thermal pads on the gpu, and that’s in the works.
I don’t know if there is a troubleshooting program for the freezes so after I boot it up again I could see what’s the problem.
I can try recording a video of the freeze happening if needed.
If someone has any suggestions or maybe knows what’s up I would be grateful if you would post them here. I will try everything out and post a response.
